"  I&amp;#039;m only going to say this one time, because I know you all will get sick of me saying this: I&amp;#039;M SO READY FOR WINTER BREAK! Okay, anyways.... This past week was our choir potluck Thanksgiving dinner, which was so much fun! Every year the Century Singers go up to the Kyle Field press box (Kyle Field is our beautiful football field) and bring Thanksgiving food. We turn off the lights in the press box and turn on the lights of the football field, and stand up on the tables and sing our Fightin&amp;#039; Texas Aggie Fight Song.  It sounds kind of sketchy, standing up on tables singing and such, but it really makes you feel the unity that comes with being an Aggie. Go ahead and laugh, but I felt really proud to be an Aggie, standing up on a wobbly table, linking arms with my friends, and swaying back and forth &amp;quot;sawing Varsity&amp;#039;s horns off.&amp;quot; There is no other feeling than feeling like you belong somewhere, and after being stressed out the wazoo, I needed some assurance that I am where I am supposed to be. That being said, let me just point out how much I am in love with all my Century Singers :). Like, I don&amp;#039;t know what I would do if I didn&amp;#039;t have this huge group of friends I am REQUIRED to see Monday through Thursday. Whether you&amp;#039;re musical, athletic, politically active, or an avid volunteer, when you get to college (or even when you&amp;#039;re looking up schools!), think about what interests you, and look for groups that are centered around that.  I&amp;#039;ve always said choir people are a certain kind of people, they are their own category of weird (but I mean that in the best way possible :] ). But it might just be because I belong and I can completely be myself when I&amp;#039;m with them. I remember when I was preparing to audition, I called my dad and said &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t know if I even want to do choir past high school.&amp;quot; Truthfully, I only said that because I was terrified of auditioning for a college choir without the security of my friends that I&amp;#039;ve sung with for five years. Thank goodness for Dad though; he wouldn&amp;#039;t have that.  After a pep talk and some sweet text messages from him, I survived the audition, only to find that it was really not that intimidating and that I did better than I thought I would. Don&amp;#039;t let your fear of being alone in a new place keep you from going out and finding your niche. Yes, it can be scary at first, but only because it is new. Just like everything else that is unfamiliar, it only takes a little time and getting used to for the unfamiliar to turn into home. So what are you guys hoping to get involved with in college? What are you nervous about? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
